Hey everybody, and welcome back to another episode of 7 minute AE tutorials, where you learn tips, tricks, and shortcuts in 7 minutes or less. No BS, just AE!
This is a very special episode. For those of you who follow my channel, you may have noticed that I haven't uploaded an episode in a few months. The reason for that is because I've been producing my first Udemy course that is all about Shape Layers in After Effects. It's a comprehensive course and, if you take it, you'll know everything you need to know about how to create and use shape layers. In that spirit, I wanted to upload one of the tutorials from it. This is an example of what you'll be learning in my Udemy course - "The Power of Shape Layers" - coming very soon. This tutorial is a little longer than our usual 7 minutes, but well worth the extra few minutes.
Merge Paths is a powerful tool that allows you to manipulate your shapes. They are really useful in icon creation, as you saw in this tutorial. I highly recommend that you experiment with shape layers and all of their attributes and animation tools. Don't forget to check out my Udemy course, "The Power of Shape Layers," coming very soon! I hope that you all will sign up and take a tour with me through the wonderful world of shape layer creation.
I hope this helped you out. Please like, share, comment, and subscribe. I'm including the project file in the description below. Thanks for watching everybody, and I'll see you next time.
